Eure Lieblings-Antikriegslieder

[Lord Rover]

Für mich sind das:

"Birds of paradise" von Peter, Sue and Marc, sowie

"Gortoz a Ran / j´attends" von Denez Prigent und Lisa Gerrard.

Weiss nicht, ob wer die beiden Lieder kennt.

[Eaglemaster]

Nun ja ich denke drowning pool - soliders... nein jetzt mal spaß beiseite ich mag "imagine" von john lennon und "send home the cavalery" (bei letzerem kenn ich leider den Protagonisten nicht) und für mich als großen Rock fan steht "fridenspanzer" ganz oben.

Meinst Du vielleicht "Stop The Cavalry" von Jona Lewie von Anfang der 80er?

Metallica - One

I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel the scream
This terrible silence stops it there

Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, help me

Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, wake me

Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh god, help me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, help me

Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmines has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

Jaaaanz Klischee, "Fortunate Son" - CCR

[chiana]

Mein Lieblingsantikriegslied ist immer noch " Imagine" von John Lennon.

[Doc Jaques la Croix]

Rise Against - Hero of War

He said "Son, have you seen the world?
Well, what would you say if I said that you could?
Just carry this gun and you'll even get paid."
I said "That sounds pretty good."

Black leather boots
Spit-shined so bright
They cut off my hair but it looked alright
We marched and we sang
We all became friends
As we learned how to fight

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

I kicked in the door
I yelled my commands
The children, they cried
But I got my man
We took him away
A bag over his face
From his family and his friends

They took off his clothes
They pissed in his hands
I told them to stop
But then I joined in
We beat him with guns
And batons not just once
But again and again

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away

The shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow

A hero of war
Is that what they see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it's a flag that I love
It's the only flag I trust

He said, "Son, have you seen the world?
Well what would you say, if I said that you could?"

passt prima in die Zeit. Ich sag nur Irak, Afghanistan ....

I

von Edwin Starr - War

Ja, das ist auch mein Lieblings-Antikriegslied- am besten in der Jackie Chan Version (... absolutely naaa'sing).

In DS9 wird der Refrain sogar einmal von Quark zitiert.

[Schetti]

Eine Band, die sich sehr mit Krieg in ihrem Lieder auseinander setzt:
Sabaton

Auf den ersten Blick könnte man meinen, die verherrlichen den Krieg, aber egal welches Lied man von ihnen hört...
Beispiel:
The Price of a Mile, welches über die Sinnlosigkeit des Stellungskrieg im WWI sinniert und zeigt, das der Krieg mit den Blut der jungen Menschen gezahlt wird, die in die Wagschale geworfen wird.
YouTube - Sabaton - The Price of a Mile

Hear the sound of a machinegun
Hear it echo in the night
Mortals firing rains the scene
Scars the fields
that once were green

It's a stalemate at the frontline
where the soldiers rest in mud
roads and houses
all is gone
there is no glory to be won

know that many men will suffer
know that many men will die
half a million lives at stake
Ask the fields of Passchendaele

And as the night falls the general calls
and the battle carries on and on
How long?
What is the purpose of it all
What's the price of a mile?

Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army on the march
Long way from home
Paying the price in young men's lives
Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army in despair
Knee-deep in mud
Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of machineguns
Kept on firing through the night
Mortars blazed and wrecked the scene
Guns in the fields that once were green

Still a deadlock at the frontline
Where the soldiers die in mud
roads and houses since long gone
still no glory has been won
know that many men has suffered
know that many men has died

Six miles of ground has been won
Half a million men are gone
And as the men crawled the general called
And the killing carried on and on
How long?
What's the purpose of it all?
What's the price of a mile?

Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army on the march
Long way from home
Paying the price in young men's lives
Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army in despair
Knee-deep in mud
Stuck in the trench with no way out

Young men are dying
They pay the price
Oh how they suffer
So tell me what's the price of a mile

That's the price of a mile.

Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army on the march
Long way from home
Paying the price in young men's lives
Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army in despair
Knee-deep in mud
Stuck in the trench with no way out

Der anti Kriegs Song ist für mich The Cranberries - Zombie. Tolles Lied mit so viel Emotion gesungen, genial.

Motörhead - 1916 ist für mich persönlich eines der besten Antikriegslieder die es gibt, gefolgt von "Brothers in Arms" von Dire Straits und von Metallica One

WAR
(Barret Strong, Norman Whitfield/Edwin Star)

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War is something that I despise
For it means destruction of innocent lives
For it means tears in thousands of mothers' eyes
When their sons go out to fight to give their lives

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

War
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War is the enemy of all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
Handed down from generation to generation
Induction destruction
Who wants to die

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

War has shattered many young men's dreams
Made them disabled bitter and meanLife is too precious to be fighting wars
each day
War can't give life it can only take it away

War
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
Peace love and understanding
There must be some place for these things today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord there's gotta be a better way
That's better than
War

War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing

Hallo!
Wie findet ihr den Song? Ist der zuviel Kuschelrock? Hättet ihr das Arrangement lieber dramatischer?

Musikalisch ist das nicht so mein Geschmack, aber in Verbindung mit den Bildern war doch ein wenig Gänsehaut angesagt. Am Arrangement würde ich nichts rütteln, auch muss es nicht rockiger sein. Sanftere Töne verdeutlichen mE viel drastischer die Grausamkeit des Krieges, da die Kluft zwischen Harmonie (der Musik) und dem Grauen (den Kriegsbildern) dann größer ist und dementsprechend besser einschlägt.

Ein Antikriegslid von Machine Head könnte deshalb auch nie so sehr wirken wie eins von Juliane Werding.

Ein Antikriegslied von mir: peace song

Hallo!
Ich habe zusammen mit einer Soul-Sängerin ein Anti-Kriegslied geschrieben, es ist eine Ballade mit englischem Text. Titel: "why can't we all just live in peace together".
In diesem Video auf youtube könnt ihr den Song hören:

Wie findet ihr den Song? Ist der zuviel Kuschelrock? Hättet ihr das Arrangement lieber dramatischer?
Bin gespannt auf eure Antworten.
